1971 GTO Judge orbit orange?
Does anyone know how many 1971 GTO Judges came from the factory in Orbit Orange? I remember seeing the one on this site a while back. The reason being is a guy told me today at a car show that his brother died recently and he has a real 71 Judge that has not been on the road since the 80's. He said it is orange. I asked him if it had the original paint and he is not sure...the car is buried in a mass hoard tin building. We are going to go look at it in the next couple weeks. Another cool, car is a 55 Chevy 210 2 door post...very solid...I actually looked at that one.

It sounds like almost the same back-story as the one that is known.
One 71 Judge known One 71 GTO known total actual production = unknown |

Keep us posted once you have had a look.
Nothing close to Orange in 71 unless paint special ordered. Could also be a 70 and not 71? Always great to see the Pontiacs surface with the possibility of getting back on the road. |

What about Canyon Copper? Many would consider that to be orangy.

To me CC is a bronze, but with men having a decent propensity of color blindness, I wouldn't be surprised if he (or I) could perceive things differently.

I tend to think Castilian Bronze (CB) looks more bronze than CC...but thats just me.
